Florida High School Teacher Sued for Making Inappropriate Comments to Student

A high school student has filed a lawsuit against a former teacher who allegedly made several sexually-charged comments to him. The student used to attend Port St. Lucie High School, where math teacher Meri-Ann Johnson reportedly used "sex talk" to teach math on multiple occasions. For example, while teaching algebra, Johnson reportedly asked "How about I get naked?" before simulating a strip tease that culminated with her slamming her shoe on the boy's desk.

Also, when the student asked to use the water fountain, Johnson reportedly told him "How about if I pour this water over my body and you can lick it off of me," before simulating a sex act with a water bottle. The boy played on the school's JV basketball team, which happens to be coached by Johnson's uncle through marriage. He allegedly told the student that if he complained again, he'd be cut from the team.
